Plot Summary of Storm Breaking - The Mage Storms 3
"Book Three of The Mage Storms. The only answer to how to stop the mage storms seems to be in the ruins of the Tower of Urtho, Mage of Silence. It seems one of his weapons that was so powerful that he would not allow them to be used, could be the answer. Karal and a select group go there and try to figure out which one, and how to use it before the last storm comes. It seems that Karal is the key, because of his ability to channel."
Ed Phillips, Resident Scholar
